@muskieman You can check her AKC registration online or you can always call them. Have her registration number handy (It would start with DN, then 7 numbers) so they can look her up.

@muskieman What registry is she with- AKC? If AKC, you'll need to see if she is full or limited registration. If limited, any puppies produced will not be able to be registered. Other than that, check the contract you should have signed with your breeder on purchase. I have one for each of my...
